The heterogeneity of early Parkinson's disease: a cluster analysis on newly diagnosed untreated patients.
<h4>Background</h4>The variability in the clinical phenotype of Parkinson's disease seems to suggest the existence of several subtypes of the disease. To test this hypothesis we performed a cluster analysis using data assessing both motor and non-motor symptoms in a large cohort of...
